It was definitely 3 million. Mind, I wish I was as 'overweight' as Ross Barkley

Which is probably why the quoted fee is £5 million and not £500k. That makes a bit more sense now.

Who else was in for him at the time?

it's called progression if he actually plays and progresses though, which he isn't doing unless i'm mistaken, nor is he likely to He's been out of the first team squad for less than half a season and is on his way out of the door, purely because the new manager doesn't fancy him. He played more than enough games last season to not warrant the 'mercenary' tag, not to mention 5 times in the Champions League. Villa were dreadful and were looking at a relegation battle when he left, you really can't blame him.

He's not a mercenary at all. He left a mid table Championship club to play Premier League football, followed by leaving one of the worst Premier League sides in the history of the competition (where he'd been for 5-6 years) to join a club where he'd have the opportunity to play Champions League football. It's called progression.

Getting Delph in early January would be one of the best transfers we've done in a long time, given the circumstances.

He actually used the Notting Hill Carnival as an excuse

We'll be okay man. Shelvey is OP anyway and we have backup players good enough to get a game for the likes of fucking Reading.

Hahaha merry Christmas you shit cunt

Good news indeed. I hope he is given a chance as he's been poor from the very little we've seen.

He's refusing to sign a new contract and the Allam's want every penny they get before they sell up. It's not Hull letting him go, it's the Allam's.

I took the wank comment back, but totally agree about Perez.

Pick your toys up and calm down, nobody said he is absolutely shit. I think some (like me) just don't get the hype.

Wank was a probs a bit harsh, but I don't even think he's been decent. He doesn't even put himself about when he comes on with 10 mins to go. He played the entire 90 mins against Blackburn up top and didn't have a single shot on target.

He's done fuck all at SJP in the league. He barely even challenged for any headers the last game he came on.

Mitro has been wank this season, so it's not like he'd be a miss. I can see us selling him for 15 mil and bringing in someone like Gestede for a lot less than that as a stop gap until the end of the season. Murphy has got fuck all to do with any of it, he was signed as a second target man and will probably remain that. He'll never kick a ball for us in the Prem.

We need a 22 year old Danny Guthrie.

Not to mention it's going to take 3 games for Reading to even catch up with us, assuming we lose all our games and Reading win all theirs. Even then, it's fucking Reading, and they're shit.

If Tiote's passing to Yedlin at HT of the Birmingham game is anything to go by then we're fucked if he's the solution to absolutely anything. It also looked like Yedlin was legit pissed off with him, so maybe he's not part of the whatsapp group of #nufcbantzlads Or maybe I've got no idea what I'm talking about.

Football finances again, yay. It's probably nowhere near as black and white as that.

Aye Aye Aye Aye Aye Cheers.

Twitter is full of dribblers like, they're lapping it up and some are even claiming to be ITK over the whole thing

Is Lindelof the bloke from that tiny Swedish club who were scammed out of a few bob by Benfica?

People actually thought he called him a 'cous cous nonce' aaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
